What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a dental procedure with cosmetic and functional purposes, where we restore your damaged teeth with a tooth-coloured material called dental composite. With composite bonding, we can improve your appearance while restoring your teeth’ function.
Dental composites are resinous materials made from fine mineralised glass particles mixed with other plastic compounds. We sculpt and shape this mouldable material to match your natural teeth and regain their lost structure. After that, we use a specialized bonding agent and curing light to attach it to your teeth.

Indications and Applications
Due to its natural look and versatility, composite bonding is used in numerous situations. Sometimes, we use it to repair and restore teeth damaged from decay, erosion, stains, chippings, and fractures. But we can also use composite bonding to enhance your appearance when you have gaps between your teeth or minor anatomic and alignment problems.
What are Dental Veneers?
Unlike composite bonding, dental veneers are custom-made thin shells placed over your teeth and made outside our dental practice. Veneers are designed to adapt, fit, and cover the front face of your teeth to enhance your smile.
They are typically used for cosmetic purposes when you have stained, worn, chipped, or misaligned teeth. Additionally, they are durable and aesthetic solutions to correct your smile without more invasive treatments like orthodontics or dental crowns.
Veneers require multiple steps inside and outside our dental practice:
- Tooth preparation: it consists of removing a thin enamel layer from your frontal tooth surface to allow space for the treatment.
- Dental impression and temporary veneers placement: after making enough room for your veneers, we take an impression to replicate your teeth and send it to the dental laboratory. Meanwhile, we place temporary shells to protect your teeth.
- Veneers design and manufacture: our experienced dental technicians design and create your custom-made veneers.
- Adjustment and placement: we place and fix your final veneers with a specialised bonding agent.

Is Composite Bonding Right for Me?
Your oral evaluation, severity of the problems, and specific needs will determine if you are a good candidate for composite bonding. Some complex oral issues might require other dental treatments. Therefore, your compatibility with composite bonding will be determined by our specialists.
Candidate Criteria
Healthy teeth and gums are essential to receive a composite bonding. Ideal candidates have minor cosmetic issues, such as discolouration’s, chips, gaps, and superficial stains, instead of severe damage to their teeth structure.
Consultation and Evaluation
Before starting, we perform a comprehensive examination and a personalised assessment to determine which treatment works best for you.
Your goals and specific needs are crucial to trace a treatment plan. Also, we usually require some additional tests, such as X-rays and digital imaging.

Composites Veneers vs Porcelain Veneers
Although dental veneers and composite bonding have similar cosmetic purposes, they have significant differences to consider.
Durability
Dental veneers can last up to 15 years or more with the appropriate care, while composite bonding may last around 5 to 10 years with excellent oral hygiene and maintenance. They are both influenced by your oral hygiene, dietary habits, and teeth grinding.
Cost Effectiveness and Accessibility
Composite bonding is generally more affordable than porcelain veneers. As a result, they provide a cost-effective solution for minor cosmetic improvements. Although veneers can represent a more expensive treatment, our patients typically value their durability and aesthetic results.
Tooth preservation
Unlike dental veneers, composite bonding does not require wearing down your teeth to obtain the desired results. Although it involves surface preparation, it is a non-invasive alternative that preserves your natural teeth.

How Much Does a Composite Bonding Cost?
Factors Influencing Cost
- Amount of teeth: multiple teeth imply a higher cost.
- Materials and expertise: higher quality materials and experienced professionals imply a higher cost but also better results.
- Additional Procedures: if you have decay or gum disease, you will require additional dental treatment to solve these issues. Also, some decay removal requires pulp capping to protect your teeth from requiring a root canal.
Insurance and Financing Options
Insurance companies generally cover a portion of your treatment. Yet, at Westmount Dental, we offer you multiple financing options to facilitate your dental treatment.
Composite Fillings Process
Composite fillings follow a strict procedure protocol:
- Initial Consultation: we perform a complete oral examination and additional tests to design your treatment plan.
- Tooth preparation: we use chemical compounds to create microscopic pores to allow biomechanical bonding.
- Bonding: we use a dental bonding agent to attach the composite to your teeth surface.
- Composite moulding: we apply a composite that matches your teeth and harden it with curing light.
- Polishing: finally, we eliminate excesses with dental burs or discs and polish the surface to provide a smooth result.
Aftercare and Maintenance
Your composite veneers can fail without your care and healthy habits.
Therefore, maintaining good oral hygiene practices is essential to prolong your treatment’s life. You must keep your good oral hygiene habits such as regular brushing and flossing and avoid harmful habits like clenching your teeth.
